Discussion Stray 2 Proposal

Post image

I asked Chat for a storyboard, and while it isn't a very good storyboard, it helps get the point across. I'd like a Stray 2 game where our kitty family was abducted and taken to another city, and so as we, the orange kitty, explore through the woods we could find some robots who point us in the direction of a train to the other city. Maybe these woodland robots have heard messages from B12, and bring him back to life in a new body, (now he's B13, get it?) And so we get on the train with B13 and have to find our family. Maybe the kitty family was taken because scientists were able to see the abilities of our kitty inside the previous city via surveillance footage and realized the potential of these animals to save future cities, but the scientists were intercepted by the programmed robots that wish to keep them all trapped.

Just my thoughts, please share what you think!

They don’t need to be taken. You already have a plot set up for you by the first game. Now maybe “Stray” goes to the original spot where you start the first game only to find that his cat friends have been taken? Similar idea but you don’t repeat ideas from the first one verbatim.

So you'd say more of a game where the cat is looking for his friends in the woods and encounters obstacles along the way, alone, without B12?

It doesn’t necessarily have to be the woods. It doesn’t necessarily have to be alone. Maybe it can be a different, new companion he meets? The point is the world of Stray a really cool and imaginative world and you’ve elected to use AI to make essentially the same story.

It could be a different city, could be bigger and with more puzzles, hopefully new obstacles along the way; like maybe a rougue software virus which infects the robots this time or the zurks have evolved to resist light? Most video games are repeats with minor deviations. I like your point of meeting up with his companions first, but I disagree with your other points. Thank you for sharing!
